'A hard diamond of a novel . . . I have not stopped thinking of it since' - Coco Mellors 'Every sentence keeps you hanging in the air, waiting for the next punch to the gut' - Miranda Cowley Heller 'Packs a huge emotional punch. I couldn't put it down' - Daily Mail 'A living thing . . . A huge achievement' - Financial Times Perfect lives hide terrible secrets Having emerged from a childhood of poverty and neglect Amos now has a life that others envy: a brilliant wife, a golden daughter, and a friendship that has anchored him for thirty years. All of that is set to change. In the course of one fateful weekend in a beautiful house upstate, Amos's life will be undone by a shocking act of violence.

Upends its characters' lives so ruthlessly and revealingly that it is hard not to take pleasure in a false facade being finally smashed' - The Guardian 'Masterly' - John Banville
